Van klimplant tot kunstwerk: dit kun je met tonkin bamboe

From climbing plant to artwork: this is what you can do with Tonkin bamboo

When you think of bamboo poles , you often think of the vegetable garden. But did you know they're useful in so many more situations? This Tonkin bamboo is so versatile that it's used in gardens as well as in creative projects, festivals, and art installations. In this blog post, we'll take you through 8 uses for Tonkin bamboo. These garden stakes are practical, creative, and sustainable. One thing's for sure: once you've discovered the power of bamboo, you'll never want to be without it. 1. Climbing supports in the vegetable garden The most common use: vegetable garden stakes for climbing plants. Beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, or peas all need support to grow upwards. With a few Tonkin stakes and some rope, you can easily build an A-frame, wigwam, or trellis structure. Sturdy, natural, and perfect for long-term use. Larger structures like tomato trellis or bean arches are also easy to build with sturdy Tonkin stakes. 2. Tie up plants in ornamental gardens Even in the ornamental garden, vegetable garden stakes are your best friend. Tall flowers like dahlias, sunflowers, or larkspur can easily break in wind or rain. A subtle bamboo stake provides just the right amount of support without detracting from the look of your garden. Young trees or newly planted shrubs can also benefit from a sturdy bamboo stake for stability and straight growth. 3. Art installations and creative expressions More and more artists and designers are using Tonkin poles for temporary or permanent installations. Tonkin is also a reliable choice in theater for stage construction or costumes. The combination of flexibility, light weight, and natural appearance makes bamboo a popular material in the creative world. 4. Bamboo structures for festivals and events Festivals make extensive use of Tonkin poles for decor, routing, and temporary structures. From flagpoles to gates and frames for drapes or nets, Tonkin poles are perfect for any event. Their light weight makes them easy to transport and quick to set up, making them ideal for temporary settings. 5. Creative building with scouting Scouting is all about teamwork, being outdoors, and building. That's exactly what Tonkin poles are perfect for. From flagpoles and bridges to shelters, camp kitchens, and knapsacks: bamboo poles and a little rope can go a long way. They're also popular as educational tools: construction kits, elastic structures, and games like Mikado or balance exercises encourage technique, creativity, and teamwork. 6. DIY projects for home Tonkin also allows you to get creative on a smaller scale. Think of homemade wind chimes, wall art, plant stands, or even furniture. Combine bamboo poles with jute, leather, or cotton for a stylish, natural look. Children can also have fun with crafts, small constructions, or even their own mini tepee for dolls or stuffed animals. Or lanterns or even insect hotels – Tonkin is both versatile and aesthetically pleasing. 7. Support for nets and breeding cloths In the vegetable garden, you often want to protect your plants from birds, insects, or too much sun. Tonkin canes form a sturdy frame for fleece, mesh, or shade cloth. Their straight shape and varying lengths make them easy to adapt to any project. Combine multiple canes to create a stable, flexible canopy or shade trellis. 8. Educational applications in school gardens Tonkin canes are perfect for educational purposes: they're lightweight, safe, and easy to use. Children can use them to learn how to build structures, care for plants, or set up their own mini-greenhouses. They're also ideal for science lessons or sustainability topics. From building bridges and towers to learning about sustainable materials, bamboo makes theory tangible. The benefits of Tonkin bamboo Tonkin canes are straight, thin canes made from the Tonkin bamboo (Pseudosasa amabilis), a species of bamboo native to southern China. This bamboo is known for its smooth surface, straight growth, and exceptional strength. This makes Tonkin ideal for applications requiring a thin, strong cane that is lightweight and environmentally friendly. Why do so many people choose Tonkin bamboo over other materials? Sustainable : Bamboo is a natural and renewable resource. Strong and light : Despite their light weight and thin diameters, tonkin sticks are surprisingly strong. Weather resistant : Bamboo lasts a long time, even in changing weather conditions. Aesthetically appealing : The smooth, green-yellow appearance fits perfectly into any garden.

Mysteryland 2024: Bamboo Poles from Masters of Bamboo Steal the Show

In an era where sustainability and innovation are becoming increasingly important, Mysteryland continues to live up to its reputation as a pioneer in the festival industry. This year, the iconic dance festival, organized by the ID&T Group, has made a unique and environmentally conscious choice: the former Q-Dance stage, now renamed the NMNH (Nooit Meer Naar Huis) stage, is constructed entirely from Guadua bamboo poles supplied by Masters of Bamboo. This is not only a first in the festival world, but also a visual spectacle that takes the creativity and sustainability of the festival to new heights. A Sustainable Revolution in the Festival World Choosing Guadua bamboo poles is not just a random decision. Bamboo is the fastest growing plant on earth and is known for its incredible strength and flexibility. By choosing bamboo, Mysteryland is taking an important step towards a more sustainable future. Bamboo not only has a lower ecological footprint than traditional building materials, but is also completely renewable and biodegradable. For a festival of Mysteryland's calibre, which attracts thousands of visitors each year, this choice is a powerful statement. It shows that large-scale events can not only be spectacular and entertaining, but also environmentally conscious and responsible. Masters of Bamboo: Craftsmanship and Innovation Masters of Bamboo BV partner of Guadua Bamboo SAS in Colombia manages the entire process from harvest to treatment in-house, which means that you buy directly from the source without any intermediaries. The Guadua bamboo poles that were used are not only sustainable, but also a beautiful piece of nature. They give the NMNH stage an organic, almost magical look that fits perfectly with the atmosphere of Mysteryland. The use of bamboo instead of traditional building materials such as steel or wood is an innovative approach that will undoubtedly be followed within the festival industry. The collaboration between Mysteryland and Masters of Bamboo shows that sustainability and creativity can go hand in hand. The NMNH stage is more than just a stage; it is a symbol of progress and respect for nature, without compromising the quality of the festival experience. ID&T Group: Progressive Since 1992 It’s no surprise that ID&T Group, founded in 1992 and known for organizing around seventy leading dance events a year, is taking the step towards sustainable innovation. The group has always been at the forefront of creating unforgettable experiences for festival-goers, and by choosing bamboo they underline their commitment to a better and greener future. Mysteryland continues to make its mark on the international festival world, not only through its impressive line-up and production feats, but now also through its groundbreaking steps in the field of sustainability. A Feast for the Eyes The NMNH stage is a true feast for the eyes. The warm, natural look of the bamboo poles contrasts beautifully with the often futuristic and colorful festival environment. It is a reminder that even in a world full of technology and innovation, we can still fall back on nature for inspiration. This year, visitors to Mysteryland will not only be able to enjoy their favourite artists, but also a breathtaking piece of architecture that pushes the boundaries of what is possible within the festival industry. Conclusion Mysteryland has once again shown why it has been one of the most influential festivals in the world for decades. By choosing bamboo poles from Masters of Bamboo for the NMNH stage, the festival sets a new standard in sustainability and creativity. The ID&T Group thus remains true to its mission to organize not only the best, but also the most responsible events. The NMNH internship will undoubtedly be remembered in the future as an iconic example of how innovation and sustainability can come together to create something truly special.
